I didn't realize eyelash curlers were a recent invention. The first time I saw one was when a girlfriend left one in my bathroom. I swear to god, my first guess was that it was used for removing tampons or something

Ok, here is my greatest thing ever: female "that time of the month" products. It's not pleasant now, but imagine being a pioneer woman and not having a tampax or maxi-pad. How badly would that suck? Using balled up linens down there, and having to wash them? Thanks, but no.
You asked. I told.
Second is the washer. I love my washer. I love to do laundry. We came into our house from an apartment where I had to traipse down steps, over to the laundry room in all kinds of weather, only able to do it from 8am to 8pm. Now I do laundry early or very late just because I can. No worrying if someone tosses their cookies in the middle of the night, I can just toss the sheet/quilt, whatever and not have to wait. Washers rock.

Antibiotics.
For almost everything else, there's a work around. Less convenient maybe, but doable.
